FAREWELL BUT NOT GOODBYE!

It’s with happy hearts that Frame & Follie announces that after three beautiful years, we’ve decided to close up our boutique design shop. We’re grateful for all that we’ve learned, both from working with each other and with our wonderful clients. A big thank you goes out to all of our clients, colleagues and friends! We truly appreciate all of your support! Please do not hesitate to contact us regarding any past or future design work. We’ll still be only an email or a phone call away! Another big thank goes out to each other. Working so closely together has been an incredible experience, allowing us to grow and discover our own individual passions. Although we’re saying farewell to the business, we’re not saying goodbye to design (or to each other!). It’s with great memories that we’re ready start on our own paths and say hello to new adventures! Cheers! Leah & Jasmine - - - Don’t be a stranger! Leah: [email protected] Jasmine: [email protected]

WHAT'S RIGHT MEOW!

According to the instyle.com column, What’s Right Meow, it's our very own co-founder and designer Jasmine Habart and her catastic side project, The Second Breakfast! While Frame & Follie is our Number 1 passion — we truly adore helping our clients find creative ways to express themselves through visual communication — The Second Breakfast is a collection of just-for-fun (...and mostly cat-related!) doodled and illustrations inspired by Jasmine's everyday life! -- We're so excited for our girl, and it's pawesome...err, awesome...seeing the words Frame & Follie grace the (online) pages of InStyle as well! Check out the column HERE!

COMING THIS SUMMER

What's better than finding money in your old jeans?? Seeing one of our Port Moody RibFest ads printed in the Tri-City News of course! -- We've been working with the Rotary Club of Port Moody for a few months now, designing a fun and friendly logo for their upcoming summer event! Posters and postcards are coming soon, but for now we're having a great time watching out for our design work in the community newspaper!

HAPPY MARCH!

Here's an oldie, but a goodie! Wishing everyone a happy start to the month!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

SOMETHING SWEET

Valentine's Day is right around the corner! While many of us would rather spend time with our sweeties than receive boxes of heart-shaped sweets, some of us just can't resist celebrating our Valentines with the perfect gift! If you're looking for something thougthful and sweet (minus the sugar), why not give that special someone a custom couples portrait? They make warmhearted, one-of-a-kind gifts to give to boyfriends, girlfriends, spouses...or even best friends! -- This portrait was commissioned by one of our very lovely and very supportive Instagram followers, and to say that we had fun working on it would be an understatement!! Elaine was a dream client and we truly loved illustrating this portrait to give to her boyfriend, Manny, as an anniversary present! Wishing these Miami cool cats all the best!! ♥ Check out some of our couples & family portraits below, and order your very own portrait via ETSY!

MEOW SWEET MEOW

How purrfect is this hand-embroidered hoop art, crafted by the very talented Miss Tweedle! When Katie, aka Miss Tweedle, contacted Jasmine about trading custom goodies, our girl jumped at the chance, happily illustrating a mini family portrait for a custom window ornament! -- Although the holidays are over, we hope the Tweedles will cherish this Christmas keepsake for years and years to come! And the Meow Sweet Meow hoop art...it's already found a place on Jasmine's wall! Be sure to check out Miss Tweedle's Etsy shop for more of her adorable hoop designs! Just like custom portraits, they make very thoughtful gifts!

THIS SEAT'S TAKEN!

At Frame & Follie, we're starting the year off on a very happy note! We just wrapped up a project (which we'll share with you very shortly!) and now we're both headed on vacation! We have a few blog posts already scheduled and will be checking emails, but we'll be out of the office until January 22. Until then, boss cat's in charge. Just kidding, he's always in charge.

YOU AND YOURS

Custom portraits are so much fun for us because we get the chance to really get to know our clients (with their families and friends, pets, boyfriends and girlfriends, etc...) through the photos they send us before telling the story of who they are through various types of illustration! -- While each portrait holds a place in our Frame & Follie hearts, this one is special in that it was our very first custom illustration sold via Etsy...to a complete stranger! It took a few tries to get the look just right, but it pushed us toward another style of drawing which we're excited to offer clients in the future! -- A special thanks goes out to the Vila family as we wish them a very Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS

Even with a tight deadline, when Catherine contacted us about creating a custom holiday card for her and her family, we jumped at the opportunity. And when she told us what she had in mind, we were even more excited! It was as though she'd been peaking at our own holiday sketches! -- With a new (but naughty!) puppy, Catherine wanted something candid and playful. She asked us to illustrate them as though they were posing for a photo gone wrong! We immediately loved the idea, and we loved when their hand-drawn portrait, surrounded by a wall of holly, suddenly took on a festive storybook feel! Very Merry Christmas to The Donoghues!
